Marine Robotic Systems at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Autonomous Systems

摘要

Efforts in marine robotics at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Autonomous Systems focus on the development of algorithms and methods capable of modelling natural reef environments using data collected by an autonomous robotic system capable of surveying and documenting change on the Great Barrier Reef. The long term goals of this work are to provide a set of tools to support research into the ecologically sustainable use and protection of tropical coral reefs, especially the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area, and other marine habitats. This paper reviews current developments in this area and sets directions for future research in the area of marine systems.
